how do you get boost if air is not compressed? i don't get it.
i don't know if anyone's seen any sort of air or water compressor at Home Depot, they're huge compressors. this is ridiculously funny. you can't just have the intake suck more air. air cannot be sucked if it has nowhere to go. the engine can only take in so much air on its own.
bunch of bologni. FYI been posted before. it has been discussed, and it's a rip off cool.gif hmm... but for 99.4% positive feedback rating I wonder why there would be no complaints as to it not working.
reason i would say it's a rip is because it's not available to the U.S. meaning they don't want to mess with the very people who know about superchargers.

The technology exists for it to work. Whether or not 40 amps can spin it at 20,000rpm I dunno, but 20k rpm would generate psi I would imagine. It has a shaft and a motor, it would compress air.

It may create pressure. Don't forget - if that "thing" makes 1 psi - you got boost.
I like phrase -
25 RPM... sure F1 guys are starting to use those "things"
And anybody have any LAG at 25,000 RPM? LOL

In order to generate such a huge volume of air our system is designed to deliver up to 25,000 RPM (Instantly) No lag what so ever.

As said, if it does spin 25k it would work to a degree. Obviously 10hp isn't alot, a normal CAI can do that, so its not making massive power.
There are actual electric compressors in work today, at the moment they are too large to work on vehicles. 10-15 years never know where car technology will go.
